Feedpoint Orientation for LHCP
in the Unswitched Mode
Figure 7
Feedpoint Orientation for RHCP
in the Unswitched Mode
To achieve RHCP in the unswitched mode,
the feedpoint solder lugs should be positioned
as shown in Figure 7. The opposite
polarization results when 9-15 volts DC is
applied to the red and black wires. The black
wire is at ground potential, and is directly
connected to the shield of the coax, therefore
a single wire may be used to switch this
antenna if the minus (-) side of the switch
power supply is connected to the shield of the
coax in the shack.
Either LHCP or RHCP will result if these at-
tachment procedures are not followed
(random attachment). The opposite polarity
results when switched. In no case, will linear
polarity result if both Driven Elements are
fed.
